"So far this season, Xavier has trotted out the same starting five in both their games. What, if anything, that tells us is debatable, but it is a fact."
That's how Bryan started out the last iteration of this post. The starting five again held true against Michigan, but in terms of total minutes, you have to go down to sixth before you reach a traditional big man. Xavier has gone small a lot this year, and they've rotated the big man minutes fairly evenly between James Farr and Jalen Reynolds.
Coming up is a week that is going to put a lot of miles on the Xavier odometers, with games Monday, Thursday, Friday, and Sunday. Coach Mack has already said we're going to see more squad rotation this week to try to keep the horses fresh. Does that mean James and JP get rewarded for their efforts with starts? Is Larry Austin going to get significant minutes at the point? And who is going to step up in the middle as the third big man?
That's all for you to decide. Here is Xavier's roster sorted by minutes played to get you started. Happy depth charting.
